RF Dielectric Properties of SiC Ceramic Absorbers for the ARES Cavity Yasunao TAKEUCHI
Notation • Permittivity ¢ - j r ¢ - jr
? • Single crystal of SiC Semiconductor. • SiC ceramics (polycrystal structure) have larger dielectric constant and loss tangent than the single crystal SiC. • Where do these different dielectric properties come from?
!Dielectric properties are explained by the structure of the grain and grain boundary. Grain : low resistivity, p-type semiconductor Depletion layer near grain boundary : high resistivity * These dielectric properties of SiC ceramics were predicted by Dr. Maeda et al. (Hitachi co.) in 1985 .
ARES Cavity HOM damper (wave guide type) HOM damper (grooved beam pipe type)
Two types of SiC ceramics SiC-A SiC-B Bullet shape SiC ceramics (wave guide type HOM damper) SiC tile (grooved beam pipe type HOM damper) Both SiC ceramics are a-type and sintered at normal pressure. Boron is used as an additive on densification.

Frequency < fc : HE11 mode propagates outside the rod mainly. Frequency > fc : HE11 mode is propagates inside the rod. Critical frequency (= fc) is a function of e¢ and diameter of the rod. *Y.Takeuchi et al. “The SiC Absorber for the KEKB ARES Cavity”, EPAC 96.

Permittivity (SiC-B) vs Frequency Measured data he e at lower frequency ( < 0.2GHz ) should be confirmed.
Conclusions • Dielectric properties of SiC-B are explained by the structure of the grain and grain boundary. • We can probably control the dielectric constant of SiC ceramics by using additives. • We will use these results for the next future plan “Super KEKB”. Thank you.
